    so still no support for the old PSpne and PS2 digital games? The hardware should be able to render those easily!

    Yeah. They've said that they plan to have PS2 and PS1 games there eventually.

    Would be nice to be able to play the PS1 and PS2 classics that I bought on PS3 though, when I eventually do upgrade I don't want to keep my PS3 plugged in as the GOD HAND and Odin Sphere machine.

    Nope. Emulation takes a lot of work and power, man trust me. PSNow is a good compromise.

    Hmm, I guess I can see that. Though they should allow you to play all of your purchased PSN content for free through PSNow

    Jesus christ, that would be POSSIBLE but...you know...money/corporations/companies and shit. They simply wouldn't do that. *sigh*
